Drifting With Daises to Anchor's Dalai Lama Joke Falls Flat

Sometimes one feels the confusions of reality

As we are scooped up in the hidden winds of life

Drifting With Daises (poem)

Drifting with daisies a paradise lostSearching the heavens whose will had I crossedBut here in this mire my soul is now tossedWith dream to return no matter the cost-Drifting with daisies a paradise lostI asked the flowers where did I go wrongI lie to my tears the pain won’t last longGrasping at answers to help keep me strong-A silence in the wind bode my destinySearching the heavens whose will had I crossedTo face tomorrows just flowers and meThe wind touched my heart to lost memory-Once there were children with daisies would strayI thought the kisses forever would stayBut here in this mire my soul is now tossedConfused by the cloud which took Joy away-Hopeless the echoes which ruled all aroundIf this is the life to which I am boundI shouted as I tossed daisies on groundWith dream to return no matter the cost

To go with this poem: Zamfir "The Lonely Shepherd"

Even today, with all our technology, meteorologists claim they're right 85% of the time (nature vs man). Perhaps this gives some insight into the mind of Australian anchor Karl Stefanovic. Karl had the privilege of interviewing the Dalai Lama. For some reason, Karl decided to open the interview by telling the Dalai Lama a joke. Though really funny, for all the wrong reasons, it was a decision that will not die. When the original video went viral (3 years ago) many others were anxious to jump on the band wagon by making copies of the video, not to mention other news programs that picked up on the story. Needless to say Karl Stefanovic was quite "the talk of the town." To make it worse, one of the many videos keeps surfacing to get more views and remind Karl of his decision that fateful day.

And here I am to join the recent upsurge of social media once more making fun of Karl Stefanovic and "Raw Video: Anchor's Dalai Lama Joke Falls Flat"
